Orthodox Jews in Israel were instructed last week to burn over 34,000 Bibles that were given to them by Christian missionaries. Muslims burn Bibles to show their hate towards Christianity.

Do they not realize what they are holding in their hands? It is the inerrant word of our Lord Jesus Christ. I know, He didn’t write it, but He told others what to write, encouraged their writings and made the Bible what it is - the answer to any problem, question or situation in the world.

Why would somebody want to destroy such a treasure?

Just last week, there was a military man in Iraq that was using the Koran as target practice, and the United States government and military officials scrambled around to put together some action against the man. But what do they do when the cornerstone of the Christian faith is burnt in front of them? Nothing. A better question - what are we, as Christians, doing about it? Yes, we are continuing to ship the Bibles right back to the people that burnt them, but why can’t we make it a standard not to deface the Holy Book?

I know that those Bibles aren’t mine - and they will never touch mine - but it makes me wonder what kind of shape the world is in right now.

I think people should hit their knees and let God handle everything all over the world, we wouldn’t be in a lot of situations that we are now.
